Great choice.Tonton said:Tonight, definitely, Johnny Hallyday.
First TV in 1960, mostly covers of US rock in the '60s, completely reinvented himself in the '70s and 80's, sold 110M albums, The Man. His last concert was just a few months ago...then lung cancer diagnostic. Lifestyle caught up for the party animal.
He was said to be "The greatest singer you never heard of" by Anglo media, and it's true, had his agent and label done what others did for Celine Dion (French speaking), there would never have been a Bruce Springsteen. What a voice, what a punch!
Johnny passed away today. RIP. A lot of people are mourning: he was our youth, he was one of us. Larger than life. I used his late '90s stuff in my Tibopino video on YouTube. Enjoy.

It's a very adult song for adults who may have been through some stuff.jsem94 said:Kamasi Washington - The Rhythm Changes
One of my favorite tunes of all time now. It's absolutely gorgeous and damn near makes me cry. It's not even a rhythm change song, but it resembles one in a way, at least the A part of the melody.

A modern Ovid, a master storyteller, an artist who paints his images with sound. He can be as avant-garde (and bizarre) as Zappa, yet he remains engaging, approachable, even vulnerable, sympathetic. And I love his acting performances if for no other reason than he makes impossibly absurd roles believable.Libertine Seguros said:Tom Waits ~ Lucky Day
There is only one type of person in this world: people who love Tom Waits. People who don't love Tom Waits are dead to me.
